Bronze Creeper

This massive creeper is a slow growing plant, with the largest known specimen reaching a length of 1,492 feet (454.8 meters) and growing as high as 968 feet (295.0 meters).

It takes 44 years for the lime green and caramel stems to mature, by which point they have often fused together into ropes with a diameter of 1.2 feet (36 cm) and are flat and wavy.

The slender, pointed, fuzzy leaves reach up to 1.7 feet (51 cm) in length. They are solid bronze with white zig-zags, and have smooth edges.

During late spring, the creeper produces thick bunches of large beige flowers.
